Unconfiguring a Storage Pool (CLI)
Unconfiguring a storage pool removes any active filesystems and LUNs and makes the raw storage available for future storage configuration. This process can be undone by importing the unconfigured storage pool, if the raw storage has not since been used as part of an active storage pool.
 | Caution - Unconfiguring a pool renders data inaccessible, creates the potential for data loss, and fails inbound replications. |
Before You Begin
-
Do not perform a pool configuration operation while a disk firmware upgrade is occurring. To check if an upgrade is in progress, navigate to maintenance system updates.
-
Do not unconfigure a pool while the peer controller is down or unreachable.
-
If an error message reports that the target is in use, wait and try the operation again.
- Go to configuration storage.
-
If you have multiple pools, a default pool is selected and displayed. If this
is not the pool you want to unconfigure, enter set pool= and
specify another online pool.
Note - If you have a single pool, the pool name is not displayed, but it is selected.hostname:configuration storage (pool0)> set pool=pool1 pool = pool1 -
Enter unconfig.
hostname:configuration storage (pool1)> unconfig
- Enter done.
